I tried to recruit Morinth - is it possible? I found both her and Samara very silly characters to be honest. Morinth's very OTT 'psycho pick up lines', 'evil tour of the evil batchelorette pad' and 'evil erotic hypnosis' had me laughing out loud through that whole quest. I did enjoy the quest a whole lot, but for all the wrong reasons.

"That is the light switch of eternal peril! The electric bill is astoundingly high!"
"That is the garbage disposal of unrelenting DOOOM! I dropped a spoon in there earlier! DON'T USE IT!"
"That is my Drew Karpyshyn book collection! After two hundred years, he STILL makes excuses for his writing!"

"That's my coffee machine, Shepard... I take it BLACK. Black like my inhuman soul..."
"That's the vacuum cleaner. I like the vacuum it creates - the EMPTINESS OF IT!! It's a Dyson."

Dyson vacuums never lose suction, you know.

Yeah, I was never given the option to save her. I think I was too paragon at that time. My ginger head paragon have enough points to pick between Samara and Morinth in my playthrough. Just need to pass a high speech check to avoid an "almost brainrape" moment. Well in my canon playthrough, this is the first Bioware game I've have gone cold turkey in the romance department. I blame Kaidan for that... and the gingerhead Shepard. I was kinda felt tempted to cheat on Kaidan for Thane or Garrus but... I've decided to keep it just to see what happens in ME3. I must admit despite going cold turkey and trying to stay faithful to Kaidan does seem to be jarring at times... it kinda felt bittersweet towards the end. Especially at the scene right before the Omega 4 relay, where Shepard looks over the picture whimsically about the "better" days in ME1 before heading off to bed... it seem a little sad and endearing. Well it's just my opinion.

"Stir it faster! Oh no! My new CARPET! Now I'll have to KIIIILL you!"
I didn't realise you could actually recruit her. I'll have to do that this time (playing renegade).
I have to say, Tillian, despite all my moaning amount the romance carry over and 'cheating' - I too really liked that scene where Shepard looked wistfully at the picture of Kaidan. That was very simple but such a lovely moment.

I too really liked that scene where Shepard looked wistfully at the picture of Kaidan. That was very simple but such a lovely moment. BioWare could always take a note from an old saying, "Less means more." Either that or for the love of god, make the romance scene actually romantic, not cringe worthy. I prefer the old romantic scene from ME1 over ME2, especially if you're romancing any of the human crew members from what I have heard. I suppose from I have have hear, in retrospect, (Elaine) Shepard's faithfulness to her old flame from ME1 probably spared me from the god awful love scene in ME2. well if you romancing a human crew member. However, since we have Garrus as the LI now, I'm going to make a new Shepard and build it up from ME1 to ME2. Just for fun. Oh and Speaking of Morinth, you have to be either an idiot, sadistic or both if you're romancing her. She's the embodiment of a Schmuck Bait. Then again... that's what Shepard gets for trying to jump into everyone's pants.

Talk to Mordin, he can give you lotions for Garrus.... ;D And yeah, I've seen the video on YouTube for Morinth and they spell in out VERY clearly in the dialog options that sleeping with her == death. "No, I want to live" is one of them

"Oral contact with Drell tissue dangerous. Can cause mild hallucinations."
Best line in the game.
